Quality For 100%, the new Climax mono is made of a supreme multi-polymer, which is made exclusively for Climax.

Control This special monofilament has a very low stretch of below 20%. Normal lines have approx. 28%. The mono allows a maximum of control over bait and fish. mono

Strength Linear strength as well as knot strength of mono are superb and, as all Climax lines, continuously tested and confirmed in the lab.

Reliability The mono is extremely consistant and reliable with lowest tolerances. Every inch is equally strong, thin and round.

Resistance A special surface treatment makes the line cast easily and silently through the line guides. On top, the line is very abrasion re- sistant.

ICE Climax’ innovative additive perfectly protects this mono from icing. Failure caused by ex- tremely cold water temperatures in toughest conditions have effectively been reduced – there is no better mono in cold water.
